Amber Bargen Law

Speeding and other moving violations can add points to your license, increase your insurance rates, or even cause your license to be suspended or revoked. Our firm can often keep those points off your license and keep your insurance rates from increasing. A DWI/DUI is a serious charge and can jeopardize your license and risk consequences as serious as jail time. An attorney can help you navigate the process when charged with a DWI or DUI.
